27、ORTOTROT? I heard that word while studying in Australia. It is a local language for “Are you ready (to go)?”. And at Sydney Airport, I asked the way to the train station and a man told me“Go ask that “bloke” over there.” “Bloke” is used in Australia and refers to a person. “Day” and “die” sound almost alike and since “a”, “i” and “o” all sound almost the same, I have always told my Australian friends, jokingly, that they only need 24 letters, and not 26 like the rest of us do.
Australian English began to be different from British English in 1788 and has many words that some consider unique (独特的) to the language, such as outback, meaning a remote, sparsely-populated (人口稀少的) area. Early settlers from England brought other similar words, phrases and usages to Australia. “Bonzer”, which was once a common Australian word meaning “great” or “beautiful”, is thought to have been an American term. The American influence on language in Australia has come from pop culture, the mass media (books, magazines and television programmes) and the Internet. Australian English is most similar to New Zealand English for their similar history.
Words of Irish origin are used, some of which are also common elsewhere in Irish, such as “tucker” for “food”. Some native English words whose meanings have changed under Irish influence, such as “paddock” for “field”, which has exactly the same meaning as the Australian “paddock”are still in use.
【1】According to the passage, we know Australian English .
A. has special characters
B. is a kind of old language
C. is very difficult to learn
D. is the same as British English
【2】Why did the writer tell his Australian friends they only need 24 letters?
A. Because Australians never use “a” or “i”.
B. Because Australians speak very easy English.
C. Because there are 3 letters having similar pronunciation.
D. Because there are some different ways to call the same thing.
【3】Australian English is most similar to New Zealand English because .
A. they learn from each other
B. they have similar history
C. the two countries have the same political system
D. people from the two countries often travel to each other’s country
【4】The American influence on Australian English comes from the following EXCEPT .
A. pop culture B. the Internet
C. computer software D. the mass media
28、Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only(要是……就好了)”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.
My father is famous in our family for saying “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.
I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he was 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.
I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.
【1】Which of the following is an example of the “extra minute” rule?
A．Start the car the moment everyone is seated.
B．Leave the room for a minute with the iron working.
C．Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.

B．stay away
C．run out of
D．give up
【3】The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to _______.
A．keep her appointment with the eye doctor
B．meet her father who was already an old man
C．join in the holiday celebration of the company
D．finish her work before the deadline approached
【4】What is the best title for the passage?
A．The Peace of Mind
B．The Most Useful Rule
C．The Two Saddest Words
D．The Emotional Well-being
29、 More than 7,000 runners who raced earlier this month in a half-marathon in London were under the influence of a scientifically designed and powerful stimulant — pop music.
The upbeat music at London's “Run to the Beat” race was chosen based on the research of sport psychologist Costas Karageorghis of Brunel University. He has learned how to design music to be as powerful, if not more so, as some of the illegal stimulant. “Music is a great way to lift spirits both before and during physical activity. A lot of athletes use music as if it's a legal drug,” Costas told LiveScience.
Costas and his team collected data during the “Run to the Beat” half-marathon, allowing them to test on thousands of live runners outside the lab. Despite strong winds and heavy rain during the event, interviews after the race suggested that the runners found the music inspiring and fun.
In the future, Costas expects a fusion of sports and music, where the crowd and the athletes are motivated by music in the race, while motivating one another. “It is beyond the music,” he said. “The music inspires team spirit. One of the key causes of motivation is the feeling of being together with one another. Having suitable music allows you to get this feeling naturally.”
The link between music and athletic performance is just one example of the amazing power that music has over our minds and bodies. Scientists also have confirmed that music improves memories, as we all have experienced, to the point where we don't even have to hear a song. We just think of it and the memories flood in. Music has also been found to relieve pain, make you smarter, and remove bad emotions.
【1】What does the underlined word “upbeat” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Soft. B.Original. C.Positive. D.Traditional.
【2】What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A.Why the half-marathon was held. B.What the runners think of music.
C.How the half-marathon was held. D.How Costas carried out his research.
【3】According to Costas, why can music motivate people in sports?
A.It relieves physical pain. B.It improves people s memory.
C.It removes the effect of drugs. D.It makes people feel being in a team.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A.How Music Has Changed Us B.The Amazing Power of Music
C.How Music and Sports Affected Each Other D.Music Contributes to a Successful Marathon
